In this case, my son was the victim of a crime at the high school. My personal phone was linked to his and was able to track it. I showed that to a detective-sergeant and said ‘what can we do with this?’ He said we can work cases like this. He took his team to track the signal and they weren’t able to find anybody
Michael Meehan, the embattled police chief for the city of Berkeley, California, attempts to rationalize why he dispatched 10 police officers to search for his son’s missing iPhone in January. Meehan claims he would have ordered the same for anyone else in the city and that his son did not receive special treatment.

Black pain is no different than white pain. I’m tired of people using the moral authority of past generations for their own personal gain and self-aggrandizement. Soledad O’Brien, a Harvard graduate, acts like she just stepped off the Amistad.

Mark Judge, in an op/ed published by The Daily Caller about how his bike was stolen over the weekend. The editorial was titled “The end of my white guilt.”

The latest sentence seems like a really weird thing to say (as commenters have pointed out in the article, Judge doesn’t actually know if the person who stole his bike was black, but that doesn’t stop him from going off on a tirade about black crime and neighborhoods and CNN anchors and stuff).
